Anne Barge Spring 2023 Bridal Collection

Anne Barge Spring 2023 Bridal Collection

The Anne Barge Spring 2023 collection was inspired by the beauty and enchantment of an English garden, bursting with flowers and the promise of a joyous new season.

“I envisioned a bride in one of these lush topiary gardens, beneath a trellis of roses, looking breathtaking,” said Shawne Jacobs, the creative director of Anne Barge. “ I thought of floral appliqués, flowing trains, bare shoulders, and pops of soft color.

I wanted to capture the essence of natural beauty.” The collection combines fresh simplicity with a romantic femininity to create looks that are both timeless and modern.

Among this season’s favorite silhouette is a slender column with a flowing, detachable train that evokes visions of the gamine elegance of Audrey Hepburn’s unforgettable “Sabrina” gown. The variations range from an understated strapless sheath in lustrous Mikado silk with a matching detachable train to a glamorous, long-sleeve floral embroidered column with a dramatic taffeta train. In keeping with the Anne Barge vision of flower-filled weddings for summer nights or spring afternoons, the collection features a profusion of charming designs: cloud-like strapless ball gowns, airy skirts, accented décolleté, trumpet sheaths, and of course — a touch of color in a blush silk corset gown with a bow belt.
